Cup Depths

Each inner diameter size is available in 3 different cup depths.

DEEP                                                The C, CA or CB is the deepest cup available. This is a long, deep "V" shaped cup.

MEDIUM                                          The CM, CMA and CMB have a medium depth cup. This cup tapers in towards the bottom of the cup which conserves the amount of total volume the cup has. It offers greater possibilities for range and endurance while still delivering a full sound.

SHALLOW                                           The CS, CSA or CSB cups are high efficiency versions of the C Series cups. These cups offer high level performance for upper register playing and enhanced endurance.

RIM OPTIONS

The C Series line offers two different rim choices.

Standard Rim                                 

      Width= .132" ( 3.352 mm)

The standard rim features a 'reverse angle' contour. This means that the            high point of the rim is past the center point of the rim and gradually slopes downward towards the bite. This is the opposite of most rim contours.

 

 

Wide Rim               

    Width = (1.55" (3.937 mm)

The wide rim has the same radius on the inside bite as the                 standard rim. The high point is simply extended out to add more        contact area.
